The pieces are made up of a combination of semi-precious stones and gems, wooden beads, shells, pearls, ceramic beads, glass beads, hand crafted silver spirals, and much more.

Some of my favorites are the jasper earrings, autumnal equinox necklace and the turquoise pieces.

The sporran is an essential piece of Highland dress that accompanies a Scotsman's kilt. The name comes from the Scottish Gaelic word for 'purse'.

In early years kilts were a very basic garment that required no tailoring and were generally a single piece of tartan cloth wrapped around the body. The kilt had no pockets and out of necessity the Highlanders carried a small pouch, usually suspended from a belt. This pouch became the sporran as we know it today.

We have 9 different designs that range in price from $15.00 to $25.00. Most sporrans are leather or cowhide, and a belt is included.All Sporrans are here!
